Parliament members Amir Mawallil and lawyer Rasol Mitmug just wrapped up an official tour of Baguio, one of the creative cities listed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization , to learn more about the creative industry in the city. The tour and briefing were hosted by the Creative Baguio City Council with the aid of the Baguio City Tourism Office.

“One reason why the private sector tries to shy away from creative undertaking is because they do not find it lucrative. But the Baguio experience proved otherwise by creating extra jobs and venues and allowing for a creative economy to grow,” Mitmug noted. “Our ultimate goal is to have one of the cities in BARMM – Marawi, Lamitan or Cotabato City – be declared a UNESCO creative city. It is not far from reality, as our region has been known to be rich in history, arts, culture and traditions,” he added.
